First day of school not so easy on a new mom!

Today, Ella started daycare for the first time. I never thought leaving her in a safe environment would be so hard. 

She just looked at me with her big brown eyes, while playing on the colorful mat with the other children, like “bye mom see you later.” I cried like I was a 2-year old being dropped off in the jungle.   

I wanted her to maybe cry just a little bit giving me a reason to pick her up and run. Not the case. 

I only called once today to check up on her, I thought that was pretty good. She was fine of course. She is an amazing baby so I know they will love her:)

Hopefully tomorrow will be easier -- on me that is, I'm sure Ella will be fine. I did get lots of pictures for her first day of school.

Its a 50/50 chance in the game of life.

I never imagined how much I would love being a mom. I've totally changed my way of living for this tiny human and have never looked back. Yes, Im tired or sometimes grumpy but the very moment her face lights up and smiles all worries disappear:)
Before I met Ella and experienced hands on what being a mom would feel like I was the type that wanted a child but didnt know when. Also, I wanted "child" singular, meaning only one.
I am now questioning the singular "uno" child scenario. I want Ella to have at least one sibling. I know how much I love my sister and brother and I want Ella to have the same experiences and memories as I did.
I want to try for a boy but I would be more than happy with two girls, or maybe three:) Ha!
My husband of course wants a boy more than anything in the world. He is a major sports fan and wants a football player to rough up.

So here's to a house full of crazy, wild, loving, smart children:) If that is God's plan.

Here is a plan that I won't be considering. HeHe.

I'm taking a Photography class!!!

I bought a SLR camera awhile back and I never use it because honestly I don't know how! I have wanted to take a photography class forever to learn how to take those cool pictures you see everywhere, but just haven't gotten around to it. I don't want to be a photographer I just want my own cool pictures;)
So, thank to Groupon (which is awesome) I have signed up to take a private lesson with Don Wright photography. He seems cool and his pictures look great. The date for my first lesson has not been confirmed yet and I am very eager to get started.
My main goal is to be able to take great pictures of my little Ella on the way!

I love baby pictures that look like this:

Gender Predictor... Hmmmm?

We live in society where now is already late and we need everything 30 minutes ago. So if you could predict the future, would you? Here is your opportunity... wondering whether you will have a boy or a girl, once you decide to have children, (or if you have them already and have something to prove) please proceed to the Chinese gender predictor. Yep you heard it, the Chinese have formulated a calendar that can predict (so they say) whether you will have a boy or a girl.
Don't believe me, try it out for yourself and try your friends and your mom and call your Grandmother. I want to prove the system wrong;) (mission for the day)

here she is, the future...

Let me know the outcome! Please, please, Please

All the best,
